Kudos to our first group of students who earned the title, “Student of the Month,” here at Williston Elementary School! “This year we’re recognizing one student per month in each homeroom teacher’s class,” said Marla Hiers, principal. “The teacher can choose which category: citizenship, academics or most improved. We’ve planned to hold this award ceremony the first Friday morning of each month.”

Williston Elementary School assistant principal Angel Thomas and principal Marla Hiers flank the proud group of young people who just received their “Student of the Month” certificates for September.

Once again Kathy Brewington, who teaches 5th grade, volunteered to prepare the certificates. Representing the schools PTO, Nancy Robinson and Brewington’s daughter Brenda Harrell put together goody bags and provided refreshments for the honorees following the presentation of the certificates at the 8:00 AM ceremony in the multipurpose room at WES.
